Hi Everyone, I have a VERY annoying issue with BackupPC, I am attempting 
to have BackupPC NOT backup certain hosts on the weekends. I have the 
following configuration for these specific hosts:

# 0 = Sunday
# 6 = Saturday
$Conf{BlackoutPeriods} = [
  {
    'hourEnd' => '17.5',
    'hourBegin' => '7.5',
    'weekDays' => [
      1,
      2,
      3,
      4,
      5
    ]
  },
  {
    'hourEnd' => '0',
    'hourBegin' => '1',
    'weekDays' => [ 0, 6 ]
  }
];

$Conf{RsyncShareName} = [
  'shareName1',
  'shareName2'
];

>From my understanding the above configuration is saying on weekends this 
host can be backed up between  00:00 & 01:00

This is my wakeup schedule for the BackupPC server:

$Conf{WakeupSchedule} = ['6.9', '16.3', '16.6', '16.9', '17.3', '17.6', 
'17.9', '18.3', '18.6', '18.9', '19.3', '19.6', '19.9', '20.3', '20.6', 
'20.9', '21.3', '21.6', '21.9', '22.3', '22.6', '22.9', '23.3', '23.6', 
'23.9', '1.3', '1.6', '1.9',, '2.3', '2.6', '2.9', '3.3', '3.6', '3.9', 
'4.3', '4.6', '4.9', '5.3', '5.6', '5.9', '6.3'];

As you can see it is been told not to wake up between 00:00 & 01:00.  I 
find it really annoying that my hosts continues to be backed up on 
weekends. 
I am tempted to try removing '23.9'  &  '1.3'  from my wakeup schedule but 
I should not have to. Does anyone have any ideas, or does anyone know how 
to tell BackupPC not to backup hosts on any given day?
